This guide walks you through how to get the information you need to set up your Immich instance to send emails using Gmail's SMTP server.
## Create an app password
From your Google account settings
- Add [2-Step Verification](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185839) to your Google account (Required)
- [Create an app password](https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords).
At the end of creating your app passwords, a password will be displayed; save it, it will be used for the password field when setting up the SMTP server in Immich.
